Bomb threat shuts Berkeley BART station

The threat - called into BART at 8:09 a.m. Friday - led to a thorough police search while riders waited outside and trains were halted on their tracks, according to BART's Vicki Mills.

"They combed the entire area and there was nothing there," she said.

Other than that single delay, Mills said all BART trains - brought to a halt Wednesday by a technical problem that stranded some 100,000 East Bay riders for up to two hours - were running on time Friday. &lt;
